Pros

+ Good pay + Takes Care of employees (until they don’t need you)

Cons

- Focus is on growth of the size of the bank and not on employees or customers - Bank desires to grow via acquisition and will terminate most employees of any acquired bank - Will eliminate staff to the point not enough people are there for clients - No focus on organic growth - Has some spectacularly terrible people in management roles

Pros

Decent pay, benefits and great coworkers. Although, majority of the legacy and some newer employees left.

Cons

Senior management in Champaign, IL didn't understand the Chicagoland market.
